Gunflint Trail Scenic Byway
Little Iron Lake, MN

Little Iron Lake offers canoeing opportunities similar to small lakes of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCAW). The BWCAW is a non-motorized wilderness area managed by USDA Forest Service. This is the southern border of 2007’s Ham Lake Fire. On the first anniversary of the fire, May 3, 2008, 450+ people of all ages and from all parts of Minnesota came together to replant the forest in an event called “Gunflint Green Up.”
